Live Football on TV – December 2013
December 2013: What matches are on TV?
BT Sport and Sky continue to fight it out over the Christmas period with a massive amount of live football available to fans in the UK over the festive weeks. BT Sport have the edge with European football overall with action coming from Australia, Germany, Italy and France throughout the coming weeks while Sky look to just edge it for UK footy with a good selection of live Premier League and Scottish Premiership football. Sky Sports also still retain the right to La Liga although most European leagues will take a break until late January (as Britain probably should too!) as December comes to a close.
Remember of course, that the games listed below will also be available online to subscribers, including the iPad stream service from BT Sports and Sky Player from bSkyB.
